<<Cutting corners is allowed however in suitable circumstances. See 'The List of Exemptions and Indulgences from Inconvenient Laws and Codicils that Prevent you from Having a Good Time'>> I cannot keep up with the updates on this list. Should I convert to Islam? Regulated life seems so tempting sometimes.

>>It is widely acknowledged that there are no absolutes in law, and the penalties for breaking any of the strictures of any religious law are not clearly defined within the texts.<< In Deuteronomy of the Holy Bible, it was decreed that, in a fight between a woman's husband and another man, if the woman grabbed the latter's balls (or family jewels), her offending hand/hands was/were to be cut off. (BTW, this reminds me of the amputation of hands for theft even in present-day Saudi Arabia.) The amputation of a wife's hand(s) for grabbing the testicles of her husband's attacker sounds like an absolute to me. Not?
